Themes & Tone of Her Poetry

Mónika Tóth 

Her poems travel through feelings of solitude, identity, beauty, pain, and resilience—often using accessible language with evocative imagery. Consider these examples from her featured works:

• “I am never alone / With books as my constant friends / I am always at home.”
  This piece ties comfort to literature—painting reading not just as pastime, but sanctuary
•  
• “Mirror mirror on the wall, / Why don’t I like the woman I see…”
  A reflection on self-doubt, body image, and internal struggle for self- “I am beautiful when I wake up / I am beautiful when I cry…”
  An affirmation that beauty exists beyond external perceptions and remains even in solitude and sorrow
• “Life is a journey, a winding road... Life is a poem, a masterpiece divine... Sometimes life is cruel and unfair.”
  Capturing life’s contradictions—from its beauty to its inherent challenges—with poignant, layered metaphors.

These short, reflective verses feel like quiet conversations with oneself—honest, vulnerable, and comforting.

• “YOUR NAME… your name / song in my heart... your name is my everything.”
  A gentle ode to emotional connection and the power of a name
• Notes of childhood wistfulness: “The truth is... creative, happy, carefree... I think back on my childhood...”
• Poems on home as both a comforting and chaotic space: “Home is a beautiful place... our home is like a cosmos / beautiful and ugly / calm and chaoticReflections on nature: “The sky is blue. The sea is beautiful and calm... sweet love.” And even touches of the divine: “I believe in God... Life is a gift of God, full of surprises and joys.” Her work shows a consistent thread: simplicity that’s deeply emotional, exploring universal feelings through personal imagery.

 romance

The sky is blue.

The sea is beautiful and calm

the waves kiss the shore —

sweet romance

your friendship

I confess

the truth is

your friendship

Touched me once and
Left a mark on me

release me

An endangered generation, our future getting dimmer

A morbid sensation

Release me with a release

Free me with freedom

Give me peace

give me love

give me silence

Show me the way out of this prison

I am..

Ah Shakespeare!

Indeed the world is a stage,

And we are merely actors.

I am the set

atop the stage.

I am the scene

on the screen.

When I miss your soul..

When

When I miss your soul,

I send my heart,

hidden explorer, to you

I imagine we are together again,

at least for a few moments,

and our souls thread like in the old times…

you are my inspiration

You are my special friend

your friendship is like a flower

beautiful and fragrant

your friendship is like the snow

pure and sparkling

dear friend

you are my priceless inspiration

Happiness

Are you happy ?

Yes...
Why are you happy?
I just learned how to love myself.

You will..

Your sympathy I avoid

I don't need the sympathy

I love you and you don't feel the same

You are Insensitive.

I do not want your sigh.

I do not want your pity.

You will not see me cry.

my path

My path is filled with thorns

my heart are bleeding

my soul are scratched

I can’t see anything because all is covered by fog,

but I keep going on this thorny path.

Red rose in a dew

Pure beauty
I cry silently

sunlight shatters on my face

blessing my soul with hope

blessing my heart with hope

I smile happily

our love

Our love is like a dream come true

Free from pain and suffering,
A better future.

I want ..

I don’t want to swim

in your ocean of tears

…i want to be happy

I walk

I walk in the woods with the wind

As the sun sets and I am left on my own

I talk to the tress all night and they whisper back

Making me realise, I'm still breathing and I am not alone

Found

I found you,

I found me in you.

Talk to me softly, in my ear,

Whisper away all desires.

Whisper me softly-into happiness

you

You kiss me slowly
And my heart beats fast

The world is nonexistent

Love

Love me silently

Keep me in arms reach.

Give me inspiration.

Give me a reason to be good,

Free-spirited,

Brave.

Be with me

our love

We walk..
Our first kiss
Sweet than sugar..

To be continued

you and me

You and Me

Happiness spread out
What a lovely scene.

Peace and love

Look for you good
Living your truth
Following your heart

You are..

You are the reason I fell in love with the light.

You are the reason I sought a way out of the darkness.

You are the reason I stayed.

You are the reason I love you

You are the reason I need you.

Signed,

The sun shines bright,

But my days are always dark-

Lonely days

I met you in my dreams

somewhere

you and i are alive and together

i am only dreaming of you

and i hope you only dream of me.

I confess

this time and space

red tulips on my tongue

white tulips on my heart

Because I know

For one split second

I was on your mind

opposites

the cold of your soul

the warmth of mine

Life

The meaning of life

is about getting to know
who we really are

I don't need anyone to keep me company

When the Universe is with me at all times

wink at me

When I feel lonely inside.

When I see you

when I see you I see no darkness in you.

I see only light

everything else

my heart flutters.

I left the darkness behind me,

surrounded by bright pure, joyful light.

Today

today, i woke up and i was happy

for the first time in a long time
a sunday morning

needed

hugs needed

my brain is horrible today
it hates everyone
except you

hold me tighter
I say
hold me till the flowers bloom

love

we can start over

as many times as we need
that’s love

You are the scent of me

I confess

the truth is

Today, the world cold.

The rise of sun gives me hope.

You are the scent of me.

The gloom will disappear very soon.

The disappointment will disappear very soon.

Your smile gives me hope.

My hand gently caresses

The chords of your soul

My eyes gently caresses

the chords of your heart

slowly and gently

We play our beautiful song

You are the symphony of me.

Love is like a beautiful symphony.
